Just noticed that SK is compulsory, so they can't even hold their shot. SK is confirmed 100% in either case then.

Yeah this isn't true because SK can shoot the jailed person, but we still have the extra lynch.

Hopefully SK concedes so that we don't have to sit around for 5 days autolynching people.

Wouldn't that be a great way to hijack oneself.

SK does still have a chance to win. I won't say how of course.

End Game

Takkata-Jim increased the scale on his display and saw another fleet. It, too, had just started turning toward him.

The ether was filled with a roar of voices. AM, FM, PCM-every spot on the dial took part in the confusion. Could that explain why nobody seemed to hear him?

No. The Galactics had sophisticated computers. It had to be his own equipment.

There had been no time to check it all before taking off.

Takkata-Jim nervously watched the map.

He was flying into a pod of tiger sharks, hoping to negotiate Streaker's protection and eventual release. But he remembered the look on Gillian Baskin's face, a week before, when he had suggested giving the ETs everything they wanted. Metz had supported him then, but the expression on the woman's face came to mind now. She had looked at him pityingly and told him that fanatics never worked that way.

"They'll take all we have, thank us politely, and then boil us in oil," she had commented.

Takkata-Jim tossed his head. I don't believe it. Besides, anything is better than what she plans!

He watched the tactics holo. The first fleet was only a hundred thousand klicks away, now. The computer gave him data on the ships, at last. They were Soro battlecruisers.

Soro! Takkata-Jim tasted bile from his first stomach. All the stories he had heard about them came to mind.

What if they shoot first? What if they're not even interested in prisoners? He looked at his own battle controls. The armament of the longboat was pitiful, but . . .

A claw of his harness reached over to flick on the arming switch . . .

Nightcat99 as Takkata-Jim has flown into the Galactic fleet!

Some time ago the two fleets had stopped tearing at each other as they chased him. Takkata-Jim realized they were coming to an agreement.

Suddenly his receiver buzzed with a basic contact code in Galactic One. The message was simple . . . stop and surrender to the combined Tandu-Soro fleet. Takkata-Jim, clapped his jaws together. He hadn't a transmitter, so he couldn't respond. But if he stopped dead in space they would probably take that as a surrender.

He delayed until the message had been repeated three times. Then he began decreasing speed . . . but slowly. Very slowly, drawing out the time.

When the Galactics had drawn close, and their threats began to sound final, Takkata-Jim sighed and turned the longboat's fire-control computers back on.

The boat bucked as small missiles leaped away. He applied full thrust again. When both flotillas simultaneously fired volleys of missiles at him, he tried to evade, of course. It would be unsporting to give up.

But he didn't have the heart for a major effort. Instead, while he waited, he worked on a poem.

* The saddest of things
To a dolphin-even now --
Is to die alone ....

Nightcat99 as Takkata-Jim has been destroyed!
The Streaker and her crew are victorious!

chromatically posted a lot of God stuff and played a great game durr the town. good work.

both scum and 3p were doing well until SK shot hz. hz hilariously enough died because he looked so townie.

BTW in post game you can edit any post made after the end game post!

I'll let sponge tell his own story-- it's quite good
